The economist reports: some $300bn of Russian central-bank assets are frozen in Western accounts as a result of sanctions.

There's been a lot of discussion lately wether these assets should be used to rebuild Ukraine after the war and wether such a thing is legal.

This market resolves Yes if any country or countries officially seizes assets of more than $50bn originally belonging to the Russian central bank that were frozen in accordance with Ukraine related sanctions.

It does not matter if the assets are used for Ukraine reconstruction or other reasons.

Private assets belonging to Russian oligarchs are excluded from this market.

I will resolve this via Wikipedia, or reputable mainstream media.

While a lot is located in the EU, it's legally very complicated and going to take time to lay the groundwork.
